Alright thanks, so I started looking into point to point bridges. But my question is now do the security cameras need to plug into the slave end or does that extend the range of the wifi so the camera can connect wirelessly?

We use Ubiquiti antennas for something similar to what you are asking to connect security cameras around the property (currently using 6 antennas for 10 cameras spread around the area) and then connect it to a NVR located in my house. I use an Orbi and have used other Netgear Routers with no issues. You just need to set the antennas up properly and ensure they are on a signal that is not crowded to avoid interference, depending on your area and the distance involved. The antennas act as a sender of the data from the camera to the receiver antenna which then transfers the data to the NVR via your network.
